Doukhobors


Hi there! I'm requesting a second peer review of this article after a year since the last review. I've fixed many issues in the article; references are improved, many Manual of Style issues are fixed, and the article is much cleaner overall. However, I'd still like some extra eyes to look at the article before a GAN. I don't have anything in particular this time - just a general sweep would be nice!

 * I've no idea of the topic so I can only give some very general feedback but I'll go ahead anyways since this article is already waiting for more than 6 months for a peer review. Ideally, before starting a peer review, all the maintenance tags should be addressed, like the "Unreferenced" template in the subsection "Current population" or the "Citation needed" templates in the subsections "Canadian prairies" and "Schism". This is probably not your fault since they are dated May 2022 and presumably were added after the peer review request. In any case, they should be fixed. Most paragraphs have sources but there are still a few paragraphs without sources that are not marked by maintenance tags. The article has many pictures which seem relevant to the topics discussed. In the subsection "Canadian prairies", the names of the areas should not be in bold font.
 * Some smaller linguistic issues:
 * The archbishop's intent was to mock the Doukhobors as heretics fighting against the Holy Spirit (Russian: Святой Дух, Svyatoy Dukh) but round the beginning of the 19th century, according to SA Inikova,[14]) the dissenters adopted the name "Doukhobors" usually in a shorter form Doukhobory (Russian: духоборы, dukhobory), implying they are fighting alongside rather than against the Holy Spirit.
 * "round" sounds colloquial, "around" is probably better
 * Later, other groups of Doukhobors were resettled by the government or migrating to Transcaucasia of their own accord.
 * "migrated" instead of "migrating"
 * While the Small Party cooperated with the state, the Large Party, reacting to arrest of their leaders and inspired by their letters from exile, felt strengthened in their desire to abide by the righteousness of their faith.
 * it should be "reacting to the arrest"
 * The text seems to jump between English variants: for example "neighboring" and "plow" are American English while "travelled" and "defence" are British English.
 * I would suggest that these issues are fixed first and maybe later someone more knowledgeable on the subject could give some feedback on the contents themselves. I don't have much experience with GA nominations but I have the impression that there still is some work to be done before that, at the very least by addressing the maintenance tags and the linguistic issues mentioned.

 * I'll close the peer review since there seems to be no response. I've implemented the proposed linguistic changes myself. The article now has many maintenance templates. I suggest that these issues are addressed first before starting a GAN or another peer review. Phlsph7 (talk) 09:05, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
